Bourne Valley Top Tray Competition.
-
The Bourne Valley Top Tray class is for a collection of three types of vegetables, three of each type. Each type of vegetable will be judged out of a total of 20 points. This is split into three sections as follows: 7 points for size, shape and colour; 7 points for condition; 6 points for uniformity. The overall mark will therefore be out of a total of 60.
-
All vegetables are to be displayed for effect. The vegetables must be displayed within an area measuring 45cm x 6Ocm (18 x 24in), without bending any part of them. No part of any exhibit may exceed the size of the tray. A tray or board measuring 45cm x 60cm (18 x 24in) can be used to display the vegetables, or the area can simply be marked on the staging. Where a tray has a lip or edge, it is the internal measurements that must not exceed 45cm x 60cm (18 x 24in).
-
A black cloth is permitted, and the tray may be painted. Parsley is allowed for garnishing, but no other foliage. Accessories, such as plates, sand, rings, etc., are allowed. Onion tops maybe tied or whipped using raffia or string.
The small hall will be open from 7.00 until the meeting starts at 7.45 for staging of your entries. When you arrive, please check in with the Show Manager, Rupert Lambert who will direct you the correct table and assign numbers to your entries.
Friday 2nd June 2023: Topic - Flowers
Top Vase - The Bourne Valley Top Vase class is for a vase of mixed flowering stems containing a total of between five and ten stems, taken from a minimum of two different kinds of plants. Please note that it is two different KINDS of plants; two varieties of the same plant are NOT two kinds. No accessories will be allowed.
